Bryton Rider 17 - Born to Ride, Embrace the Joy of Cycling

Rider 17 is a handy GPS cycling computer that combines data display, activity recording, and smart communication in one compact device. With easy operation and no complex setup required, you can instantly dive into the thrill of cycling. Whether for daily commutes or weekend adventures, it provides accurate GPS tracking and essential data, making it a reliable companion on every ride.

Ready to Use, Simple and Intuitive Operation

No complicated setup or speed sensor installation is needed—just power on, wait for GPS signals, and you’re ready to go! The three side buttons make operation straightforward, allowing you to start/stop recording, switch data pages, toggle the backlight, and mark laps. In addition to manually marking laps, you can enable the auto-lap feature to mark laps automatically at specific distances or locations. This feature is especially useful for analyzing stats from different segments of your ride.

Larger Screen with Flexible Page Customization

The 3-inch screen makes all data easily visible at a glance. Each page is preset with key information and automatically adjusts based on paired sensors. Additionally, with the Bryton Active app, you can easily customize page layouts and data fields from your smartphone, offering greater user flexibility.

25-Hour Extended Battery Life

With up to 25 hours of battery life, you can ride worry-free on long adventures. Rider 17 also supports charging via a power bank during rides, ensuring no data is lost even on unexpectedly long trips. The high-contrast screen, along with backlighting and a durable waterproof design, ensures clear visibility in any weather or lighting condition.

Comprehensive Support for 23 Functions

Rider 17 offers 23 essential data metrics, including time, speed, distance, cadence, heart rate, gradient, lap info, altitude, and heading direction, allowing you to easily monitor all aspects of your ride. Whether you’re on a flat road or tackling a hilly climb, you’re always in control. Firmware updates are quick and convenient via the Bryton Update Tool or the Bryton Active app.

Smart Notifications: Stay Informed on the Go

When paired with your smartphone via Bluetooth, Rider 17 keeps you informed throughout your ride. Receive instant alerts for incoming calls, emails, and SMS, ensuring you never miss an important message while cycling.

Global Navigation System for Ultra-Precise Positioning

Rider 17 integrates GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) for fast and accurate positioning. It supports multiple systems, including GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), BDS (China), Galileo (Europe), and QZSS (Japan). Whether in urban canyons or remote wilderness, it delivers precise location tracking and records every route with accuracy. Additionally, the built-in barometer provides real-time gradient data and faithfully tracks elevation gain during your rides.

Live Track: Real-Time Tracking and Sharing

The Live Track feature allows cyclists to share their real-time location with friends and family. Once enabled, a link is generated and can be shared. With this link, others can monitor your ride, including real-time location, speed, trip time, distance, and the last update time. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your rides are always tracked and visible to those who care.

Smart Connectivity with Multiple Devices

Rider 17 offers fast and stable data transmission with its companion app, Bryton Active, on your smartphone. It supports heart rate monitors and speed/cadence sensors via Bluetooth. The device also accommodates two bike profiles with different sensor and grid settings, allowing you to switch bikes seamlessly without re-pairing sensors—just switch the bike profile.

Supports a Bryton Gardia radar light

The global spec table lists the Bryton Gardia series over Bluetooth. The computer can show vehicles approaching from behind on screen and with a sound. The table does not state a detection distance.

Cloud Sync for Ride Data: Capture Every Moment

Recorded data can be automatically synced via Bluetooth directly from Rider 17 to the Bryton Active app, where you can view progress, analyze ride data graphically, and share rides on social media. The spec table also lists Ride with GPS, alongside Strava, TrainingPeaks, Komoot and Relive.

FAQ

How does the Rider 17 differ from the Rider 15 neo?

The Rider 17 is a 3-inch segment display with three side buttons and up to 25 hours of battery. The Bryton Rider 15 neo GPS Bike Computer (International Version) is 2 inches, with three buttons, and up to 16 hours in clear sky. Neither has a touchscreen or a route-map specification. The 15 neo has a cadence-bundle option. The Rider 17 shop option is black only.

How does it differ from the Rider 460?

The Bryton Rider 460 GPS Bike Computer (International Version) is a 2.6-inch mono screen with up to 32 hours, no preloaded map, but with turn-by-turn navigation and reroute via the Bryton Active app. The Rider 17 is 3 inches and up to 25 hours. Its global page has no route-map or turn-by-turn section. It records the track and basic ride data.

Does the Rider 17 have a route map?

No. The global page has no Navigation Features section. It uses GNSS to fix position and record the track. That is not a preloaded street map and it is not turn-by-turn navigation.

Can it record a track without a phone?

Yes. The existing page says you do not need to fit a speed sensor first: power on, wait for a fix, and record. A phone is for the Bryton Active app, for the Live Track share link, and for smart notifications.

Do I have to install the Bryton Active app?

Recording can stay on the computer. Uploading a ride, some data-page setup, and Live Track use the Bryton Active app (iOS and Android).

How does it mount on the bike?

The global box list includes a Bryton bike mount and a safety lanyard. To confirm the mount for your handlebar, contact us before ordering and describe the bar.
